But I ran and ran, and jumped and rolledI could feel the blood, I could feel the coldI was all alone and on the runI was waiting on the morning sunIt was nearly there

Saw a distant light in a cattle barnRipped the cotton sleeve right off my armAnd tied it round the bullet wound on my legI hollered at the moon and stars-I cannot reside behind bars, Ill leave this world before I leave in cuffs.

I could see the lanterns, I could hear the houndsTrespassing on a burial groundThen a ghost rose up and scared my captors, I fell to the ground with maniacal laughterI was home free!

Then I got up and kept on running, I could hear that Plymouth Sunbeam humminLets go darling

And before I got in the passengers seatI had a moment of clarity right there standing on my feetThat all of this will be alright some day
